Book Review: God's Greatest Gift Written and Illustrated by Deborah Burch

*****This review is meant for parents, teachers, and other people that work with children to read.*****There are many gifts that
God gives the child in this book, it’s hard for her to know which one is the
greatest…is it something in nature, an animal, a favorite drink, a beautiful place,
or is it something much different? Children
will discover what the girl in this story thinks of as gifts from God, and then
what she finally sees as God’s greatest gift. There are vivid illustrations throughout the story that will bring children deeper into it.

I think that many children
will enjoy this book! I can imagine that some children would say something like
“I like that too!” as the story is being read to them when they learn of some
of the child’s gifts from God. Teachers or parents can ask the children what
their gifts from God are too, and also ask them what their greatest gift from
him is. I think that this would probably
be a book that some children might want to pull out on their own and read and/or
look at the pictures. The hard cover edition (the edition I received) will
probably hold up for awhile as long as no pictures are ripped in the book
because it seems pretty durable.

My rating = 5 out of 5
stars

Disclosure of Material Connection: The publisher has provided me with a complimentary copy of the book through BookCrash.
